My Surprise Mate

I was so focused on Genesis and Nyla that I hadn’t noticed Blaze standing next to me holding my hand with his little one.

Genesis spun around grabbing Blaze up in her arms and kissing his cheeks.

“Did she touch you?” she questioned him, finally setting him back down on his feet.

“No ma’am.

She isn’t fast enough.” He said confidently, holding his chin up high.

There were two men I had never seen before carrying Nyla off with Ash following behind them.

To say Ash was pissed would be an understatement.

“Are you okay?” Dane asked me as he looked me over.

“I’m fine.

Shadowmoon’s future Beta made sure of that,” I smiled down at the little boy who beamed with pride.

Dane took a knee so he was at eye level with Blaze, “You did a great job buddy, but you do understand that you could have been seriously hurt, right?” “Yes, Alpha Dane, but I already know that I am strong enough to protect her against anyone who is a threat.” He didn’t waver as he spoke to his Alpha.

Dane’s face contorted in confusion, “You seem sure of yourself Blaze.” Blaze nodded explanation, “How can you be? Nyla is much older and her wolf much stronger.

You aren’t even old enough to shift into your wolf yet.” Dane was trying to figure out Blaze’s way of thinking and get him to understand he put himself in danger.

“Your daughter is going to be my mate.

No one will touch her.

Just like my daddy makes sure no one touches my mom, and you make sure no one touches Luna Holly.

I will make sure no one touches her.” Genesis's eyes went as wide as saucers as she looked at her son.

Dane was speechless.

This little boy, at 5 years old, knew my unborn daughter was his mate, and he was talking as if he was at least in his teenage years already.

Dane picked Blaze up, “Follow me,” he said to me and Genesis.
